My kiddos and I were enjoying ice cream on the back porch and our family pet paid us a visit. For the past three years we have had a family of blue birds nest in our gourd. This is quiet an exciting thing at our house. My son loves loves loves birds. He will shout in excitement any time he sees one. He loves to look through his binoculars and try to find birds or follow them. And my daughter wants to see a bird hatch so bad she can hardly stand it. Well, on this beautiful spring day our mom and pop blue bird decided to feed their babies right during our ice cream break.
How exciting it was to watch them find bugs, crickets, and such and bring them back to their chirping little ones. We sat for half an hour and enjoyed the blue bird family meal time. I will be sad when the babies fly away because when that happens we usually don't see the parents until the next year. I love our blue birds and watching them with my little ones. Sometimes the best entertaining is free, fun and found in the simple things of life!
